[Healeys] 2 post lift

[Charlie Baldwin]

This kind of lift is fine as a substitute for jack stands, but as most 
Austin-Healey and vintage British car owners are getting to the point in 
life where getting down and back up from a creeper is no longer easy, a 
lift that will bring the car to a minimum height where a mechanics seat 
can roll under up to a height where one can stand under it would be much 
more helpful.

I believe that Simon's original request was a lift that can be used in a 
garage that does not have an over abundance of ceiling height.  The 
Quick Jack meets that, but doesn't get the car high enough.

Does anyone have experience with a mid range two or four post lift?
